Today I begin a new series of blog posts. Feng Shui. After a twenty year fascination with this ancient art, I still consider myself a student. So, like any good student I will not pretend to be an expert. Rather, I will share what I learn as we go.
First things first: What is it?
Feng Shui, (pronounced Fung Shoy, not Fung Shway) is an ancient Chinese art of arranging one’s life in accordance with the forces of the universe. We’ve all used the term “go with the flow.” Feng Shui teaches us to recognize the flow of energies as they exist all around us. Once recognized, we can then assist those energies by enhancing or minimizing them.
Like many Eastern philosophies, Feng Shui has been Americanized to the point of rudeness. Google Feng Shui and chances are you will get hundreds of websites that promise health, wealth and wisdom, but only after you enter your credit card number.
I will share the information free of charge. All that I ask is that you honor this gift and pay it forward.
